can you get a yeast infection under your breast

you might get the opinion of a Breast Specialist; perhaps the Dr. who initially diagnosed your BC. Regards ....

I am 31 weeks pregnant and I have a terrible yeast infection in between my breasts..my doctor has told me to use hydrocortisone cream to get rid of it and it works for about 2 days then comes back..then she prescribed me this powder too use and that isn't helping at all either..now I've just been putting on baby powder..has anyone else ever gotten a yeast infection there? If so what did you use too get rid of it?

Yes, you can get a yeast infection as a virgin. Women often get a yeast infection, for example. after taking certain antibiotics, which can disturb the normal healthy balance of the vagina. However, it is also possible to get bacterial infections (again while still being a virgin), not just yeast infections, so it is important to get it checked out to see what organism might be causing the problem and whether a medication might be needed to clear it up.

she even had to stop wearing shocks because it would go around her ankels. It is a yeast Infection that can spread anywhere on your body. If you wear under wire bras this might be your problem. try to use a loose sports bra and clean under your breast and apply fresh cream as much as you can. Get a few sports Bras so you are not infecting the area again... Clean Clean Clean as you are killing your infection but DO NOT SCRUB...

Have had a chronic yeast infection since I was a small child. I know it’s a yeast infection because I just had a yearly exam. Im seeing very minimal results from the medication. I’ve always had a yeast infection rash throughout my vulva and it just won’t go away it’s even spread to under my breast. I’m so tired of being in pain all the time don’t know what to do. The medicine never works and it seems like I get no relief. What do I do from here?

could be a yeast infection definitely want to get that checked and if it is the hair bothering you by yourself venus trimmer it is nearly impossible to cut yourself with it are you can kind of feel your way around down there and trim with the trimmer it won't take it completely off but it will take a good chunk so it won't be as annoying.

Since the problem has been going on so long and has not responded to the treatment suggested by your doctor, it would be a good idea to make an appointment with a dermatologist, who can do testing, if necessary, to determine just what your skin condition is. A correct dx is the necessary first step toward successful tx. Please let us know how things turn out. Best wishes...

Is her tongue white? Thrush doesn't usually manifest as a sore on the outside of the lips, as candida requires a moist environment to survive. Just wondering if this has been diagnosed and if the other symptoms of thrush are there because if it's just this sore again are you sure it's yeast?

Hi,the most common cause of vaginal infection that is a lot of times confused with yeast infection is called Bacterial vaginosis(BV),which happens when the natural inhabiting flora bacteria in the vagina are too low in number which reduces the acidity or ph level inside the vagina which when normal keeps natural inhabiting bad bacteria under control. These higher number of bad bacteria produce toxins which makes it more difficult for the healthy flora to rebalance.

Fluconazole does work on yeast infections as it is an antifungal. Clindamycin is different and is an antibiotic. It fights bacteria, not yeast or fungus. Clindamycin can create a situation in which you get a yeast infection. It's not used to treat a yeast infection but fluconazole is.

Do you get sores on your vagina when you have a yeast infection? I think it might be a yeast infection but i don't know. I am A virgin never had sex. And my parents are both clean.

if you had a boyfriend and he gave you a yeast infection and you go get treated for yours but you still mess with the boy and use a condom can you get it again

Hi, The best advice I could give you is to tell your mom to make an appointment to see a dermatologist.This sounds like a yeast infection and it should be treated.Don't worry,your skin condition has nothing to do with breast cancer. Don't use any lotion that could make things worse.. Dry your skin very well after bathing,or showering.In the meantime,you could use an anti-fungal cream until you see the doctor okay? Take care now..

Ya, you can get a yeast infection of your testicles after sex with a woman that has a yeast infection. See your doctor if you haven't already if it hasn't cleared up yet.

Ugh, that sounds like a big old pain!! Can your doctor prescribe Diflucan for you which is a systemic tab to help with yeast overgrowth? I have heard of women getting fungal issues under their breasts. Keeping it dry is important which I guess the antiperspirant helps with. I'd pay attention to clothing and what items make it worse, which bras, etc. And can you air dry it at night? I guess that would mean sleeping topless or underwearless. (that's not a word, I know.

Please let us know (Using this same thread) how things are proceeding after you see your doctor and when you get your mammogram results okay? All the best to you....

dots with skin on them in perfect rows. Is this a yeast infection or fungus or something else? I am also a 30G cup.

It sounds to me like it is a yeast infection. Get some Nystatin cream or powder from the doc and she should be fine. I am a med-surge nurse and have many women and a few men that have the same symptoms. Under the breasts is prime place for yeast to grow especially when it is hot outside. Hope this eases your concerns.

If it is a yeast infection no matter how much you wash the smells stay you need anti-fungal med and keep it dry sweat makes it worse and also a cotton bra will help like a sports bra.The Dr can give you a Rx for a anti-fungal or you can by athlete feet or jock itch meds at the drug store put it on after you get out of shower make sure you dry off good before you put it on.

Its a fungus infection between your breast due to moisture and the bra is dark and warm.

It could be a yeast infection. Yes, you can get these on the skin in the areas you mentioned. If that's what it is your Dr will give you a cream for it. Take care.

Syphilis takes 6 weeks for a conclusive result and herpes takes 4 months. Without you having symptoms I doubt that you have an STD. Your wife might have a yeast infection. Discharge is associated with gonorrhea and NGU. Did you only receive unprotected oral sex or did you also have unprotected vaginal/anal sex?

But now I have this burning feeling in my breast and read that it could be a yeast infection. It just started yesterday and today I decided to stop feeding him by my breast and just pump. I'm boiling all bottle and pump supplies for 20min. Do I need to see a doctor or can I get rid of it on my own since it just started? Or is it something else and I'm just freaking out?
